Anyone really know besides the lost why coach frost was fired ? Personally I think part of the problem was moving Nebraska to the big 10. They really could never hang with the likes of Michigan Ohio State and Michigan State as well as Iowa. Nebraska has generally had kind of a rilvaly against Oklahoma and should have stayed with the big 12. You add in to the fact Texas decided to form its own Texas longhorns network which made no since at all. The big 12 has never really been the same. The only team from the big 12 that made it to college playoffs was Oklahoma. That I know of correct me if I'm wrong. That being said u general can't make the playoffs unless you are in the top 4 rankings. The Irish get a certain say even if they don't make the top 4. I could see a situation where the cornhuskers either win or keep it close. If they do win I imagine Sooners get knocked down to number 9 spot or lower. Nebraska goes up.
